hello. you are life with bbc news. a 25% tax on imports to the united states from both into the united states. nomia iqbal reports from washington. this 10% levy on chinese goods comes on the back of years of tariffs implemented by the us, starting with donald trump back in 2018.

and solar panels. it has also pledged to take countermeasures what they may be. now, remember, the charge being laid at china's door is that it is producing chemicals that flow all border into the united states. and that's one of the reasons why the us believes that the working with the united states to try to kerb this flow.
10:33 am
and that china has one of the strictest drug policies in the world. and i think that's what many people in the world will be looking at, is how will china further respond? last time, for instance, they levied their own tariffs on aluminium and steel imports from the united states. now china is one of the world's biggest buyers of soybeans. it brings it here and turns it into a soy sauce. it stopped buying soybeans from the united states, which hit us farmers incredibly hard. you can see how easy this could be to spiral. that's not something that beijing will want at this time. it will want to continue its current exports and its current export rate. so what does it do? have been issued today,
10:34 am
beijing says it is open to talks. it urges the united states to meet china half way. and of course, there's been much talk here about a potential deal between the us and china. and that is because a 10% tariff is not the 60% that so many people are asking one, is this just the start? and two, what does donald trump want in return? is he trying to leverage china for something? now, one of the things that analysts believe is that the war in ukraine. that's because last time when he came as president, he came to beijing.
10:35 am
so is he looking for a similar deal with also, there could be the potential that he's urging and there are other deals to be done, perhaps on tiktok. these are the kind of negotiations that many the us and china. is that it could reset relations between the two. it could stop the trade war spiralling if they go badly. well, it could set up a real competition between the two world's leading economies. that was our china correspondent there. will have on the three countries targeted, starting in american parlance, it's a self—inflicted wound the united states,

justin trudeau has resigned. the liberal party is in the process of choosing a new leader. party. and all of this is setting - a very sort of scorched earth basis for the next canadian leader to negotiate. - first, no one has a mandate to negotiate their way out . to even be reasonable - with donald trump, given the economic damage. if we go that far. and if we don't, well, that would be great. minute again and again? after it crashed with a passengerjet above ronald reagan national

10:44 am
15 people died in the disaster, which happened three months ago. on a boarding school in ukrainian—occupied russia where civilians were sheltering. kilometres from the border with ukraine. four people were reported killed many of them elderly — were injured. more than 80 people are reported to have been parts of the kursk region have been under ukrainian control for five months. forces and russian troops who are supported by north korean soldiers. they're said to show a russian fighterjet carrying out air
10:45 am
0ur correspondent has the latest. as is often the case when we're talking about territory that has been seized inside russia by ukrainian forces. is that a boarding school, which is being used as a hub to evacuate civilians, was hit by a russian glide bomb. images, apparently showing the trajectory of this glide by an aircraft. where civilian terminals like this have been targeted but this is territory that materialised over the past half but this is territory that ukraine, broadly speaking, ukraine, broadly speaking, is keeping hold of. it was hoped to relieve pressure on other parts
10:46 am
of the front line that has not of the front line that has not materialised over the past half a year, but what kyiv is hoping, is that it will keep hold of it for long enough to possibly leverage use it as leverage in any kind of peace negotiation, but it just gives you an idea ofjust how intense the fighting is there, not least with the recent involvement of north korean troops, although there are some reports to that suggest that they have withdrawn after suffering heavy losses. but it gives you an idea of the intensity of the fighting in what is a relative sliver of russian territory compared with what russia is seizing inside ukraine. yes, inside ukraine reports coming in from the russian defence ministry that russian forces have shot down several ukrainian drones and a us made himars rocket launch system as well.
10:47 am
self—sufficient in continuing to fight its fight. as for the other way, while russia takes things in the central poltava region, to have been killed there. so that's a relatively severe one. but they happen so frequently that it's very difficult looking at these kind of impacts. because russia has been able to both manufacture, continue manufacturing missiles scale on a relatively cheap scale,
10:48 am
in this aerial battle. one side can do it at a much greater extent than the other. and clearly, you know, we are still waking up very, very early days. the reuters news agency that ukraine may well have to hold would be agreed with russia. transpires in this war.
10:49 am
is keen to engage with moscow as much between trump and putin, perhaps even a visit. but i think more broadly for ukraine, we're hearing trump and vladimir putin. to keep ukraine on that stage and keep himself at that negotiating table. so if we're hearing these proposals that, look, elections in ukraine have legally been postponed under martial law enshrined in the constitution. and yet it's a common moscow attack line to because of the lack of elections taking place.
10:50 am
so i think we're going to hear and i think all you're going to hearfrom ukraine is a calls for substantial security guarantees — assurances. if ukraine feels it can get enough of those assurances to potentially cede territory to a proposal for peace. but we are in early days, but i think we are going to see as clearly the us wants to to press ahead. but the crucial question here is whether donald trump with new tactics of targeting supply lines, highways instead
